Brandon Saad won't be tried at center anymore in the near future. The Blackhawks experimented with the 20-year-old centering the second line for the beginning of the preseason, though he slotted in at left wing Sunday because of Bryan Bickell's late scratch. Saad didn't feel very comfortable at center, saying that he's a "born winger." Saad also won only nine of 38 faceoffs during that span. Saad will likely play as the team's third-line left winger now.
